Lou Ferrigno at the beach

Welcome to the April 1, 2009 edition of the Hardgainer Blog Carnival.

Tristan presents Progress: Monday 16th March 2009 posted at Body And Fitness Blog, saying, “A look at my posing pics to see the progress I am making from an overweight body back in October 2008 to what I am now.”

Hardgainer Tips presents The Second Best Upper Body Exercise for Hard Gainers. It’s all about the Lats!

FitJerk presents What Is MSG & Why You Should Avoid It! posted at FlawlessFitness, saying, “Information about the dangers of MSG and why you should avoid it”

Bill (that’s me) presents Lou Ferrigno Is In I Love You, Man! It’s not really about hardgainer tips or training, but Louie himself started as a 6’5″ 120 pounder! He was quite skinny. Obviously, he was genetically gifted, but if you’ve ever seen Pumping Iron, you know he works out HARD!

That concludes this edition. Submit your blog article to the next edition of Hardgainer Blog Carnival using our carnival submission form. Past posts and future hosts can be found on our blog carnival index page.

How to Measure Progress

asher j asked:

I’m 17, turning 18 and i’ve been underweight my entire life. When I do workout, I do look buff for a short while. I’m an ectomorph, slightly ripped, but with so little size it doesnt make a difference. I want to see gains on a weekly basis, is this possible?

Answer: An emphatic YES!!!

You may not see muscle gains every week, but what you will see if you’re persistent is strength gains. Endeavor to increase the weights you lift every workout. Part of the beauty of progressive resistance weight training is the ease by which you can adjust the poundages you lift. In most gyms, you can add as little as 2 1/2 pounds on each side of a barbell.

Read this for more details – How To Gauge Progress When Progress Is Not Obvious.

Here’s a great primer on how to train, eat, and sleep for maximum muscle gains – The Top Ten Muscle Building Tips.

Finally, here are some tips on building strength – 5 Ways to Get Stronger

If you follow the guidelines in these 3 articles, you will no doubt progress each week, but in every single workout!

Best of luck to you!!!
